PG Removal
==========
See OSD::_remove_pg, OSD::RemoveWQ
There are two ways for a pg to be removed from an OSD:
1. MOSDPGRemove from the primary
2. OSD::advance_map finds that the pool has been removed
In either case, our general strategy for removing the pg is to
atomically set the metadata objects (pg->log_oid, pg->biginfo_oid) to
backfill and asynronously remove the pg collections. We do not do
this inline because scanning the collections to remove the objects is
an expensive operation.
OSDService::deleting_pgs tracks all pgs in the process of being
deleted. Each DeletingState object in deleting_pgs lives while at
least one reference to it remains. Each item in RemoveWQ carries a
reference to the DeletingState for the relevant pg such that
deleting_pgs.lookup(pgid) will return a null ref only if there are no
collections currently being deleted for that pg.
The DeletingState for a pg also carries information about the status
of the current deletion and allows the deletion to be cancelled.
The possible states are:
1. QUEUED: the PG is in the RemoveWQ
2. CLEARING_DIR: the PG's contents are being removed synchronously
3. DELETING_DIR: the PG's directories and metadata being queued for removal
4. DELETED_DIR: the final removal transaction has been queued
5. CANCELED: the deletion has been canceled
In 1 and 2, the deletion can be canceled. Each state transition
method (and check_canceled) returns false if deletion has been
canceled and true if the state transition was successful. Similarly,
try_stop_deletion() returns true if it succeeds in canceling the
deletion. Additionally, try_stop_deletion() in the event that it
fails to stop the deletion will not return until the final removal
transaction is queued. This ensures that any operations queued after
that point will be ordered after the pg deletion.
OSD::_create_lock_pg must handle two cases:
1. Either there is no DeletingStateRef for the pg, or it failed to cancel
2. We succeeded in canceling the deletion.
In case 1., we proceed as if there were no deletion occurring, except that
we avoid writing to the PG until the deletion finishes. In case 2., we
proceed as in case 1., except that we first mark the PG as backfilling.
Similarly, OSD::osr_registry ensures that the OpSequencers for those
pgs can be reused for a new pg if created before the old one is fully
removed, ensuring that operations on the new pg are sequenced properly
with respect to operations on the old one.
